LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Nebraska wildlife officials say severe storms that swept across the state have killed two peregrine falcon chicks atop the Nebraska Capitol.

The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission provides live streaming video of the nest box, and many falcon watchers awoke Wednesday to find it empty. Game and Parks and Capitol staff, along with personnel from Fontenelle Forest’s Raptor Recovery, found the bodies of both chicks Wednesday morning.

One chick was discovered on the second floor roof of the Capitol. The other was found on the ground.

A Game and Parks manager says it appears the chicks were blown out of their nest during the Tuesday storms.

Wind gusts in Lincoln exceeded 70 mph during the storms.
